In ancient Viking society, kitchens were an essential part of everyday life. While glass-front cabinet drawers were not used during this time, Viking kitchens were equipped with various storage options. Vikings used wooden chests and shelves to store their cooking utensils, pottery, and food items. The kitchen was often located in a separate building, away from the main house, to reduce the risk of fire. Viking kitchens had a hearth for cooking, and they used a variety of cooking techniques, including boiling, roasting, and smoking. The Vikings had a diverse diet, consisting of fish, meat, dairy products, grains, and vegetables. They also used herbs and spices to add flavor to their meals.
